Summer’s here, and if you’re anything like me, the shift from school routines to full-house chaos can feel overwhelming. But what if this season didn’t have to feel like more work?

In this episode, I’m sharing what God has shown me about being intentional in this season — what that includes, what it definitely doesn’t, and how a small moment in my backyard revealed a surprising truth about balance.

If you’re craving a softer summer — one where you can slow down, play more, and still get things done — this episode is for you.

I’ll walk you through:

• How to manage the chaos without burning out

• Why even good intentions come with distractions

• What it means to “work like an ant” — while still resting like a daughter of God

• Practical ways to build fun, peace, and softness into your summer (even without a big vacation)

Hey Mama — feeling stretched thin? Like your days are packed but your soul feels empty?

In this quick but powerful episode, I’m sharing a story about how a simple message from an old friend reminded me of the very thing I had forgotten: my hobby — a gift from God that once brought me peace, joy, and healing. And how yours can do the same for you.

You’ll learn:

• Why your hobby isn’t a waste of time

• How it’s actually God’s tool to help you manage stress and reclaim your peace

• And how to begin reconnecting with it today, even if life feels heavy

You weren’t designed to run on empty. This episode is your reminder to pour back into you.

Hey Mama, this week’s episode is one of those heart-tuggers. I’m sharing something that’s been sitting heavy on my spirit—learning how to let go. Not just of things, but of roles, responsibilities, even seasons that God may be calling us to release.

If you’ve been feeling stretched thin or like something is slipping from your hands, this episode is for you. I’m talking about what letting go really looks like for high-achieving women, why it’s not weakness, and how to start recognizing what God may be asking you to release—so you can finally make room for peace.

Listen in for encouragement, reflection, and a few gentle action steps you can take today. Let’s walk this out together.

Feeling overwhelmed but not sure if you need a therapist, a coach… or both?

Let’s talk about it, Mama.

In this episode, I’m helping you figure out what kind of support you actually need — and how to get the right help for you. Whether you’ve been feeling anxious, burnt out, stuck in a rut, or just unsure of your next steps… I’m walking you through the differences between therapy and coaching, how to tell which one you may need first, and how to make a choice that truly serves your mental and emotional well-being.

I’m also sharing a few hard lessons I’ve learned in my own journey — because yes, I’ve been burned before too. But I’ve also found healing and growth with the right support.

So if you’re tired of carrying it all by yourself, this is your sign to start exploring what help looks like for you — without shame and without pressure.

You're not alone in this, and there’s wisdom waiting for you right here.

This week, I’m opening up about something that so many of us high-achieving women deal with… but rarely talk about: our mental health.

We carry a lot — for our families, our businesses, our dreams — and we often keep pushing even when we’re running on empty. But today, I’m sharing why nurturing our mental and emotional well-being has to be a priority, not an afterthought.

In this quick, heartfelt episode, I’m scratching the surface of a conversation we’ll dive deeper into next week with my sister, Nake126ta, who’s a licensed therapist. But today is just me and you.

If you’ve been feeling a little off, a little tired, or just need someone to remind you that your peace matters… press play, Mama. You’re not alone.

📅 And next week, my sister Nikita (a licensed mental health therapist) is joining me to talk about anxiety, depression, and how we high-achieving women can stop carrying so much in silence.

It’s me, Coach Q — and if this season of your life feels heavier than usual, this episode is for you. I recorded this quick message straight from the heart because I know what it’s like to show up for everyone else while holding everything in.

Maybe you’ve been moving through something difficult — silently. Maybe you feel like you’re the strong one and there’s no space for your breakdown, your overwhelm, your “I just can’t today.”

I want to talk to you.

In this episode, I’m sharing something I’ve had to grow through myself: the importance of opening up, the damage of silent suffering, and how to start releasing what you’ve been carrying alone.

Mama, you are not meant to go through hard things in isolation. Not mentally. Not spiritually. Not emotionally.

Let this short but powerful episode remind you that even strong women need support. You are not alone, and there’s nothing wrong with needing help.

Let’s talk about it — because we don’t heal by hiding.

What if peace, softness, and ease were actually part of God’s original design for us, Mama?

In today’s episode, Coach Q shares a deeply personal story about the moment she realized she was operating in full masculine energy — always fixing, doing, and leading out of fear. From a mental breakdown in 2011 to her healing journey today, she opens up about how embracing softness has changed everything in her life: her marriage, motherhood, business, and walk with God.

You’ll learn how to recognize masculine energy in your day-to-day life, what softness actually looks like (hint: it’s not weakness), and practical ways to begin softening — even if you’ve been “the strong one” for years. Whether you’re single, dating, or married, this episode will encourage you to trust more, control less, and allow the peace and power of femininity to take root.
